Napolon Roshi Continues from page 8 The bright face of memory comes clearly and densely. Not long ago, the hot June came and went. Then the sun of hatred and war smiled stubbornly, which later would turn into an avalanche of bloodshed. Not long ago I saw with my blurred eyes that misty moment. Gray glimmers, strangled voices, faces moving like in a silent movie. In the streets, crowds, their shadows cast by the cracked sun. Along the pavements harsh faces, tired from waiting, from hatred, from the missing peace. People stood in small groups, speaking in half-voices, with suspicion, with fear. Others pretended to see nothing, but their eyes told everything. The Belgrade of that time seemed to me like a large stage where everyone played a forced role. Somewhere in the background remained the shadow of Otes, its scorpions, like a metaphor for power, for its invisible extension. On page 5
